Weather Forecast For The Weekend

The weather forecast for the weekend looks good so far – but we all know how wrong it can be! At the moment the Met Office are forecasting sunny but cloudy for Saturday and sunny for Sunday.

The downside appears to be the temperature which looks to be sitting at around 4 – 6 degrees. Hopefully that will be wrong however it may be worth wrapping up warm and bringing a hat and some gloves!!
